The 2025 Humans to the Moon & Mars Summit is happening May 28–29 in Washington, D.C., with panels available via live webcast. This event brings together leaders from NASA, Blue Origin, ULA, international space agencies, and academia to discuss the technologies, partnerships, and policies needed for humanity’s return to the Moon and the first crewed missions to Mars.

Topics include crew safety, sustainable habitats, in-space manufacturing, and the growing role of commercial spaceflight. With the Artemis program aiming for a lunar return by 2027 and Mars missions on the horizon, this summit offers a timely look at the challenges and opportunities ahead.
